Beliefs:
We believe:
• All people are of value;
• All people should be offered the opportunity to
perform to their maximum capabilities;
• Communication is key to social, emotional, academic
and intellectual growth;
• There are multiple kinds of intelligence;
• If academic learning is not a person’s forte, then
other worthwhile learning should be
promoted;
• People learn best when given reinforcement that
promotes desired behaviors and are ignored
when producing inappropriate behaviors;
• Learning is a sequential task and many small steps are
needed to accomplish the final goal;
• Learning is aided by teaching, experiencing,
interacting;
• The greatest goal of learning is to transfer from an
externally prompted desire to an
internally focused desire;
• The timetable for learning is set at one’s own pace so
one can develop one’s own goals;
• Distractors for one may be moments of beauty for
another;
• Little is learned from pain beyond the desire to
escape that situation.
